HOW THE PINHOLE CAMERA WORKS

PINHOLE CAMERA


A pinhole camera works by using a small pinhole which allows light through it to then form an image on a light sensitive paper. Points of the scene reflect light and then inverts the image on the other side which allows you to see the image. The box (or whatever you may be using as the camera) is darkened with just a small pinhole where the light shines through, this is camera obscura.
